Everyone is bi for the right price.
From the lighter side of the Gay Fray:
Sometimes I think the reason people think liberals are uptight, self-righteous bastards is that nobody realizes we have senses of humor. Well, that and everybody seems to think Harry Reid, who has no apparent sense of humor, and Nancy Pelosi, who just isn't funny despite being a joke, are liberals.

No, I think people think liberals are uptight, self-righteous bastards is because liberals ARE uptight, self-righteous bastards.

Title: "Real Men Aren't Afraid to Suck Straws", by Dan Savage
Date: November 9, 2007
Awesome. Dan covers a recent study released by a British sociologist:
Everyone concedes the small sample size, but Anderson notes some interesting results:
And what is the one-drop rule? Come one, we all know what it is. It is the great double-standard known as the "sufficiently invisible lesbian". As Dan explains:
It's an excellent consideration of an interesting story, and one which Savage contrasts by presenting a nearly-homophobic "news report" from WCBV TV-5 (ABC) in Boston, called "10 Drinks Men Should Never Order". The slideshow notes that men should not drink "Anything with a straw ... it's nearly impossible to look macho or hot when using one".
Dan, of course, makes the obvious point:
And as Kevin Hamm noted in the comments:
Awesome. Hets are getting funnier all the time.
Oh, yeah. Watch out for comment #20, which answers a straight woman's question about how gay men have sex.
And one last note: If you watch the "10 Drinks" slideshow, check the links at the end:

Title: "A New Push to Roll Back 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell'", by Thom Shanker and Patrick Healy
Date: November 30, 2007
When I read the headline, I thought, "Oh, shit, now what?" The phrase "roll back" settled poorly in my mind. Turns out it's good news:
Some numbers from the article:
There really doesn't seem to be much point in repeating the old joke that the military is more afraid of gays than al Qaeda. I'm not sure the military could afford to rid itself of 65,000 members right now. Talk of "going South" during Vietnam meant shooting yourself in the foot in an effort to get away from the front lines. I'm not sure how many people actually did that. But if the military purged 65,000 people from its ranks while obliging others to extended tours and terms of service, we might see a new phenomenon in Iraq, aptly named "going down".

Sure you are!:roflmao:
That's why you constantly need to remind people about your heterosexual status.
Come over for a visit, and we can kiss.
You're NOT uptight and self-righteous?!?!? PLEASE!!! You couldn't describe yourself any more accurately.
Just one thing:
WHO VOTED OTHER???
Anyone care to explain why you voted "other"?:bugeye:
WHO VOTED OTHER???
Anyone care to explain why you voted "other"?:bugeye:
they are not humans
they are beasts with faceless heads
their wings rise to the sun
But you come off as an uptight, self-righteous bastard--does that mean that you are...GASP...a liberal?
Mod Hat - Oh, come now

If it's not already clear, Baron Max is one of several members who receive special protection against such criticism. Despite their minimal and oft-malicious "contributions" to this community, they are not to be criticized for their behavior, as they are generally unable to tell the difference between their own mean-spirited tripe and criticism of observable behavior. We are expected to give them free rein to be as rude, mean, and irrational as they choose to be, and it is generally expected that nobody should oppose, criticize, or refute them. After all, we must be fair.
Thus: no more.
